This sounds like a governor problem of feeding too much fuel under no load or very light load; or fuel delivery components stuck in a position too wide open.

Is a telephone call to the generator manufacturer's technical helpline not possible?

Operator error.

Lack of experience.

Failure to properly shut-down and re-start equipment, due to lack of knowledge of the operator, and their superiors.

Call a service tech who knows something about the equipment to fix it.

Send it to me and I'll repair it for you.

RTFM.

Call the manufacturer, (like PWSlack said) he'll at least know what kind of "power generator" you have.

Hire a crystal ball reader.

Look for a new job.

Governor. But, seriously, how do you expect to get a precise answer on so little information provided?

How long is a piece of string?

Given the info, the cause could a great myriad of things. Calling in someone with the technical expertise to assist you is your best bet at this stage.
